Beta XTrainer
The MXT46 shock for the Beta XTrainer
The MXT46 is a complete replacement shock for the Beta XTrainer, machined by MXTech to All Moto Performance's specs for the XTrainer specifically. It is $1,800, built to suit you with the right spring for your weight, and it is the best shock money can buy under $2,500.
It fits every XTrainer, Lowboy included. It completely replaces the stock shock, so there is no need to send yours in.
What it is
A lot of shock for $1,800
At $1,800 valved and sprung for you, it's a bargain. You get a beefy 18mm DLC coated shaft, a 46mm Kashima coated body, billet construction and separate low, mid and high speed compression and rebound adjusters, machined by MXTech to AMP's specs for the XTrainer and built to suit you with the appropriate spring.
This is for riders looking to achieve capabilities beyond what the stock design can offer. It is head and heels above any revalved production shock, including the KYB equipped Race Editions.

MXTech's National shock ($2,900) is their premium offering and the best shock money can buy. It adds the huck valve bottoming circuit the MXT46 leaves out. Like the MXT46, it can be built with AMP's valving specs to suit each individual rider.

The full build
Pair it with the XT Lucky cartridge
The MXT46 out back with the XT Lucky cartridge and a fork spring up front is the most capable setup on the XTrainer page. Whole bike, springs for your weight included, $2,905. Every cartridge installed here is valved and tailored to suit the rider.
Lucky and MXT46, $2,905I thought there would be an improvement, but not this drastic... it did not deflect on bumps a single bit. after riding a while I realized, the rear tire never left the ground unless I wanted to... I actually found myself riding a gear higher and faster on the same trails I normally ride.
